In hopes of helping low-income seniors and seniors who have been victimized by break and enters, the provincial government unveiled a new program this week.

The Seniors’ First Safety program was launched during an open house in Regina by government relations minister Jim Reiter.

"Everyone has the right to feel safe in their own home," Reiter said in a release. "Vulnerable seniors will benefit from increased security through these targeted home safety assessments and installation of home safety equipment at no charge to them."
